Help us come up with some Newlywed Game questions

My friend is the matron-of-honor and planning her friend’s shower. They’re playing the Newlywed Game at the party. Thing is, coming up with questions presents a challenge.

We played the Newlywed Game at my — and at my friend’s — celebration, but both of us knew our husband’s-to-be for fewer than four years. This bride has been with her fiance since they were teenagers, and they have lived together for four years, (they are both in their early/mid twenties) so she knows just about everything about him. The goal, though, is to stump her.

We’ve scoured to Internet to no avail, so that’s where you come in.

(The questions they used for mine are below, so you can get an idea of what will not work. Re: These are all things the bride would either know easily, or not remember because it was so long ago. We are looking for quirky, creative and obscure.)

1. No ear hair at all, I am very clean about my person which should set a fine example for many.

2. My ex-wife and I are friends in fact we both will be walking our Daughter down the aisle next year and may share a Suite together sicne the Wedding is out of town. Her father who could be a poster child for your typical Metro-wimp after his wife passsed on, work very hard to split us up to where a decesion had to be made. So the straw was placed there by her father. By the way I get an Alimony check and she had to pay off the R.V. not me. And being such a horrible husband, I quit school to support the the soon to arrive child, two years after we were married, and I put her through College and grad school..She is a HIGHLY RESPECTED Teacher in California and has won over 100 Awards for doing what she does. I am very proud of her. She is also very proud of what I accomplished to where I coud and did retired at 52 years of age.

3. My house is very clean and in fact in give tips to the local young housewives on how to make their work easier. I do not need to have those Air Freshners in my house about to hide or cover up the odors left by neglect. If anything it smells like Homemade Bread, Cookies or Italian Cooking.

4.I have dated over 162 woemen and none of them hate me nor I hate them. I am just smarter and wiser and not hormone driven like the youngsters are who make so many trajic mistakes that they will spend a life paying for and selfishly making their children suffer through.

Roz, I failed to mention I was married for 29.5 years before the straw was placed on the back.

Kristi; I guess all you girls bring the best out in me….I just do not have don’t have to tolerate any girl games or phony baloney or acute self centeredness in woemen nor those who believe they are better than others for whatever reason. As I said before, girls today do not have much to offer a man other than cheap sex other than maybe with the Metro-boys of today, knowing the difference between the 171 shades of fingernail polish is important. School wise those who learned to memorize and regurgitate what they are taught on command get a piece of paper but acquired little knowledge of their own that was not found, discovered or created by others. SO when they get out in the real world they really do not produce anything other than what they learned from others, in other words, they are mostly Lemmings and drink Kool Ade because someone promised them something without telling them what it was but it was “Change”. For example, many of my young neighbors just found out that because they “Refi’ed” their loans at the lower rate at the behest of someone in Washington, the Tax refund they were expecting did not materialize because with the lower interest rate and higher taxes they paid more and so all the plans they had for that money went to Washington to pay for the “Change”…I guess I am just like a stern father and a former Marine Corps Sgt. a Manager who put up with a lot of stuff over the years so that now I call B.S. when I see it instead of being a phony Gusher..I also know because of my Military Service I am listed by the Office of Homeland Security as a Possible Terrorist as well because I do not agree with the “Change” which you kids are going to pay for over and over, just wait until next years taxes come do. If your smart you will save at least 25% – 35% of your salary each, not combined, to pay for what is coming with the “Change”..

eddie s, I really don’t think you’re giving Kristi the credit she deserves. Remember that she owned her own home long before meeting R. She is responsible with her money. Why shouldn’t she marry someone who is, too?

Just in general, you’re wrong. There are plenty of women in my generation (like me) who are financially independent, non- gold digging, nurturing and happy to get in the kitchen. But I don’t exactly read your comments and think, “Aw, I want to bake that guy a cake.”

You sound like you’re looking for a thoughtful woman, but no thoughtful woman wants to be with an emotionally-bruised misogynist.

1. What was his/her SAT scores?
2. What was his/her GPA in school?
3. What did they do on their 21st birthday?
4. When was their first plane ride? Where did they go?
5. Would they prefer to be caught in a tornado or an earthquake?
6. If they had one meal left to eat in life – what would it be?

Leigh, I didn’t say any of that about Kristi, you Did, and your exactly what I talking about. You actually think what you wrote matters to me, and it doesn’t and then you call me names because well I don’t agree with the rest of you, nor bow to your will, nor care about what you say or think, you mean absolutely nothing to me and well that probably bothers you since most of you young gals think your in charge or something. So like a true liberal you have to try and insult me and bring me down to your level. And women in my age group who I havekept around me for a couple of years are very happy with our relationship it is probably more honest than anything you will ever experience in your shallow life.. You forget Kristi is a Marketing person, sadly grouped in with the most dishonest profession and people on earth whose life centers around getting you to buy something they are selling and little else, other wise, she would not be hosting this type of blog on the Times Useless website. So just how do you know the persona she presents here is an accurate description of who she really is… I like Giada’s TV show, and no matter how homey they try to make it, it is still a Professional “Set” and a “created reality”..

eddie, you praise your daughter, you say you get along with your ex-wife, you claim to have dated “162 woemen” yet you still refer to all females as “woemen.” You complain about our entire gender, yet you are one of the few men who collects alimony. For a Marine, you whine like a metrosexual who ran out of hair product.

@Eddie – can I just give you a random suggestion, not having to do with how nice your or not?

I find it really difficult to read large paragraphs like that. I went to read your comments and found myself stopping for that reason. If you break up your paragraphs your thoughts might come across more clearer.

I think those comments did matter to Eddie S, or he wouldn’y have commented after Leigh said what she had to say. But you know what, who cares what Eddie S has to say, this OTE wasn’t about him, for all he had to say, all I got out of that was that his Ex pays him, so I guess that tells us WHO DID BETTER IN THAT MARRIAGE. “THE WOEMEN” LOL
